I'm curious to know if any other guys on here have dated heavier women and been ridiculed for it from family, friends, and/or co-workers. Recently, I dated a girl who was overweight. She was very intelligent, motivated, and funny. Some asshole at work found out I was dating her and proceeded to check my Facebook without my knowledge. Well, to make a long story short, he saw her profile and then told all my co-workers that I was dating a "fatty". My manager came up to me and asked me if she was overweight, and I was just in shock because what's it matter to them who I date? I was pissed off and wanted to tell them all to eat shit. Now I feel like I am the laughing stock at work, and am not sure how to handle the situation. Unfortunately things didn't work out with this girl because I found out she was unfaithful, but I'm still interested in other perspectives on this issue because I feel like the people at work still laugh at me for it.
